—Smartphones are playing major role in e-health in such a way that m-health is playing a significant role in healthcare industry. Image processing techniques are instrumental in healthcare industry to detect abnormalities in human body. Skin cancer (Melanoma) is one of the most deadly cancers, but when diagnosed early, it can be cured. Reports tell that more than million deaths occur due to Skin cancer itself. This paper speaks about how skin cancer can be detected in early stages using smartphone application by analyzing properties of the cancer, Asymmetry, Border, Color variation, Diameter and Expansion(ABCDE).These properties are analyzed using different image processing techniques like Grey scale conversion, Segmentation, contour tracing and histogram analysis.
